My favorite, by far, is the butterflier skipping out over the pristine
surface of the water, her face mirrored. Just a wonderful image you
can only get at the start of a race, probably just after the breakout
when the swimmers have been underwater and are out-racing the surface
waves.

Absolutely wonderful.

I also like the diver in a deep tuck, drops radiating from her hair so
you KNOW she's in a seriously fast spin.

No wonder you're proud!
